After a successful test phase, Madaus decided to expand this concept nationwide, with other shipping companies from Hamburg, Hanover, Weinheim and Munich also setting up regional delivery services for Madaus. The partners agreed to establish a pool under an umbrella brand. This was how, on 30 October 1971, &#8220;trans-o-flex&#8221; (based in Weinheim) was launched. The group of five regional delivery services became the first nationwide &#8220;express delivery service&#8221; in Germany. trans-o-flex was chosen as the name for the company. The aim was to develop a highly flexible carrier (=trans-o-flex) that can deliver medicines in particular quickly, safely and reliably to doctors, hospitals or pharmacies throughout Germany.
